and ahead of schedule. The agency says the others are experiencing cost overruns
and schedule delays. But the IRS might not know if that's actually true. Dave
Powner, director of Information Technology Management Issues at the Government
Accountability Office, told In Depth with Francis Rose that GAO
is looking at whether or not the IRS is accurately reporting its progress or lack thereof.
